Conor McGregor says he is the ultimate fighter, adept in all modes of battle

"Nine days out from the fight, I'm in phenomenal condition, and then the weight got changed [to 170] and all of a sudden I'm ten pounds below and I'm like, I don't need this diet because I need to eat up to the weight.

"So I threw that out. I disengaged from that. I started eating two steaks a day, two breakfasts.

"I'd have a coffee and some cookies with that, please, also. I'd be in the gym six to eight hours on fight week.
